PELVIC FLOOR TRAINER

Most women know that pelvic floor exercises can help stop embarrassing urine leakages when you cough or sneeze, and in many can also improve your sex life. Trouble is, exercising the right muscles can actually be quite difficult, so it’s no wonder that many women give up on them. The elvie app combines a small device that you place inside your vagina, which links via bluetooth to your phone. An image then appears, which gives you instant bio-feedback of your muscles’ actions, guiding you through your pelvic workout. At £149, it’s not cheap, but it’s a small price to pay if it helps you avoid surgery and problems later in life. Available from Boots and at elvie.com
